Summary Introduction
To review:
The anatomical facts behind the knee injury of a football player when the foot is planted and extended rather than flexed.
Introduction:
The meniscus is a fibrocartilaginous structure found in knee, wrist, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular, and temporomandibular joint in the humans. Human knee joint contains a pair of fibrous cartilage pad known as medial and lateral menisci.

Knee extension contracture
Dorsiflexion contracture
Knee flexion contracture
Hip internal rotation contracture
